1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 lb pork tenderloin
1 cup chopped cucumber, peeled and seeded

  • Heat oven to 400°.
  • Place pork in pan lined with foil, or sprayed with non stick spray.
  • SAVE MARINADE.
  • Bake for 10 minutes, then brush with remaining marinade.
  • Bake for 15 minutes more, then check temperature with meat thermometer.
  • Temp should be 160° (slightly pink).
  • Bake longer if necessary.
  • This is how I serve the meat in the pitas: split the pita so you have 2 rounds.
  • Place some sliced pork in the center, top with yogurt sauce and green onions, and roll up.
  • Or if you prefer, you can slice off the top of the pita, and put meat and sauce in to make a pocket.
